Klezmer Company Orchestra to perform at Crest Theatre Sunday

Music director Aaron Kula and his Klezmer Company Orchestra are bringing their entertaining musical components made up of 19th Century Cantorials meets Duke Ellington with wisdom by Rabbi Irwin Kula to the second annual "American Jewish New Year: Jazz Wisdom Spirit" with two performances Sunday at the Crest Theatre, 51 N. Swinton Ave.

Irwin Kula is billed as one of America's "most influential rabbis" and will present a celebration in music and wisdom of renewal, second chances and human flourishing at the event. His brother Aaron Kula is director of Music Performance and Education at the Florida Atlantic University Libraries. According to Aaron, this music event will be featuring musical riffs and ancient wisdom with celebration in music and wisdom that fuse the spirited rhythms of Jazz, Latin, Klezmer and World Music with wisdom on holiday themes of forgiveness, compassion, gratitude and love, to inspire and entertain anyone looking to enrich their life.

"We're brothers, we're doing a kind of tag-team performance, I play the musical component and he does the wisdom. They're interlocked," Aaron said.

He has a lot of music to choose from for the event, his first performance in Delray Beach at the Crest Theatre.

"We have about 50,000 pieces of printed music at FAU," he said. "This is not just for Delray Beach residents and we hope residents from all over the county and beyond will attend this event. It's not sold-out yet… There still are tickets available."

Tickets $26 and $36, and may be purchased at the Crest Theatre Box Office, 51 N. Swinton Ave or visit OldSchool.org/Performances.
